    I understand, many a time when we are advised of the facts and not the "wish" of what we do..it can cause this..

    Some would call it "being brought back down to earth"

    You'll have to verify from Simon - I have no affiliation with the car, just sharing its availability.

    My e-mail to Emilio was another topic, a private matter.

    My earlier comment on bringing emissions-restricted cars to standard output was simply suggesting that the modifications to restrict emissions be reversed to standard configuration.

    Brilliant photo - as per usual :D You really have an eye (or two) for getting the most out of the Countach's looks when on photo safari!

    Joe,
    so many photos, so little explanaitions...
    I was kind of following a 500S CT in France that was "junked" / stolen. Someone in France was also following this. Is this the same car? VIN of that car on picts? Who finally bought it?
    If i recall, talking to a French Lyonnais following the case closely, the junk yard owner was hoping for some statues expiration to keep the car from himself. I never got to verify these facts


    It is nice to see the healthy price of over $150K euros!!

    This is simply a restored car, way overpriced, so we passed.

    HI Countachqv,

    I have no news about this car but it was not aS but a 400S, candy red, I can ask to aman that work at the junkyard to know if the car is still at the same place.

    Salut Eric!

    I did some notes diggin and you are right, the car near my hometown was 1121354. If you get infos on that please , they are welcome.

    This white car seems to be CLA12533. I got confused at 1st because boith cars have a "junk yard " history. Would be great if someone would clear up some info ion the white car.
    There seem to be a good number of Countach in France but we seldom hear about them. That is a pitty. France has always been a hard code country about exotics, at least when I lived there. Ther are a lot of people there with great knowledge about these cars

    I missed an early mangusta and espada that was only 15 miles from where i lived! never knew the cars were there...I probably drove by the farm storage during my frequent visti over the decades.
